Rewatch Downunder - D6 Headhunter, Saturday 5th November
Travisina
Rewatch Australia: D6 Headhunter
Saturday 5th November 2022, 10.30am (UK) / 8.30pm* (Australia)


"Where... is... Orac?"
In which our heroes are menaced by a headless robot, Vila hides in a cupboard and Soolin gets most of the best lines.

Good onya Soolin! Does this mean you're joining us Travisina?

Good morning. Anyone else here, of am I an hour too early?

Why would Muller's lab be shielded against teleport, when the Federation does not have it? Is this purely a response to Blake?

I'm here too....thought I was too early.

Umm, is that the correct time for Northern Hemisphere viewing? It's now 8.35 pm AEDST and 9.35 am GMT +1. I thought that's what we'd agreed to last week otherwise Tyce would off to sleep if any later.

No idea - do we make the rewatch earlier when the clocks go back?

Liked the end bit where they lure the Android to that steel bridge & blow the crap out of him.

Hi Anne,
No, not early. I've been twiddling my thumbs waiting for someone to show. Glad you could make it.

My bad - I'm woefully out of touch!
Let's start? It would work for me, because I have to dash out this morning before meeting somebody at 12.00.

Started...

It was mentioned last week. Tyce said she'd rather not do an hour later this end. No matter this time as she's off at an ABBA evening.

And of course, I was snowed under with work and RL stuff all week, and hadn't caught up with last week's rewatch thread. Sorry, folks!

Okay, I'll reschedule the forthcoming weeks at 9.30am UK time, until the clocks go backforwards again.

Hi Pilot, Obsidian, Travisina - nice to see you all! It's a cold wet morning here - just the sort for curling up on the sofa with some Blake's 7. I've got to the point where Tarrant and Vila have got Muller (as they think) into the medicapsule.

She'll be there now, I think. How's the rain down there? We're dry now but more in a couple of days. Sad

My Mum made my brother a Dalek birthday cake for his 3rd birthday. She baked it in a jug, then studded it with Smarties. And of course, the 3 candles for the eyestalk, plunger and ray gun!

I'm slightly behind - Tarrant and "Muller" teleporting now.

No Travistina I'm building ( or darn trying to) a life size one. Harder than I expected. I started to build the Liberator but not enough info.

She was such a good actress.
I even had a chance to work with her - she was in 'At Home with the Braithwaites' (as was Peter Davison). One of the first TV things I edited, and it was loads of fun.

What is Vila using to clonk the Muller-headed android? Looks like a perfect item for prop sales.

If you want Liberator info, get the Blake's 7 Technical Manual (still available from the Supreme Commander) - it has beautifully detailed scale drawings and plans.

I remember watching some of that in the deep, distant past and enjoyed it.

It does; just like a pipe wrench with red knobs stuck on it.

I got a 'user's manual' for the Liberator from someone on this site - I'm afraid I can't remember who. But it would be very useful if you wanted to build one.

Ah, I see Travisina has better information about it!

One thing I really love about this ep and which really lifts it, is the sullen Slave. Really good, and well -written.

That's not good Pilot. Take care, won't you? There's a new new new strain of Covid circulating. See you next time.
